Yarrow Colorado Mixture (Achillea millefolium) is a magnificent, multi-colored heirloom selection renowned for its delicate, fern-like foliage and broad, flat-topped flower heads. Growing into sturdy, upright clumps reaching 18 to 24 inches in height, it produces hundreds of tiny blooms in a breathtaking spectrum of soft pastels and deep jewel tones—including shades of apricot, peach, cherry-red, terracotta, pale yellow, rose, and cream. Revered for its extreme drought tolerance, low maintenance, and long bloom window from early summer through autumn, Colorado Mixture is a workhorse in sunny borders, cottage gardens, and xeriscapes. Its nectar-rich flower umbels serve as an essential landing pad for butterflies, bees, hoverflies, and beneficial predatory insects.

Good to know

Rich color variation adds warm, harmonious pastel and earth tones to garden beds without looking harsh
Exceptionally hardy and drought-resistant, thriving in hot, dry conditions and poor, lean soils
Holds color remarkably well as a fresh cut flower and is one of the premier varieties for dried floral arrangements

Poverly refers unamended, lean soils—excessive nitrogen fertilizer or rich soil causes weak, floppy stems
Overly rich or highly fertilized soils cause weak, floppy growth and duller color intensity
